description for "Antiques: Rosa 'Souvenir de la Malmasion'"
Antique Bourbon Rose 'Souvenir de La Malmaison' was originally known as 'Queen of Beauty and Fragrance.' This rose received its present name when one of the Grand Dukes of Russia obtained a specimen from the gardens at Malmaison for the Imperial Garden in St. Petersburg. 'Souvenir de la Malmaison' produces large, flat, quartered blossoms with petals of pale, almost flesh colored pink, and a delightful fragrance. The compact bush rarely grows more than three feet, seemingly spending all its energy on blooming rather than growing.
